Rear axle leak
#8
Sure. The old ones usually need some encouragement. They will usually collapse if you grab them correctly. If you use that claw-like seal puller be extra careful not to damage the housing in the process.

If it is crooked I am sure that is the reason for the leak since the rubber seems to be intact in the picture.

Make sure you clean the housing up before you install the new seal.
